Stekt Svinelever med Løk og Smør
Pan-Fried Pork Liver with Slow-Cooked Onions and Butter (Keto-Modified)
Yes, with a tweak: ensure onions are slow-cooked in butter/oil until softened and lightly browned, without any added sugar for 'caramelization'. About 8g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Norwegian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Nutrient-dense slices of pork liver, pan-fried to a tender texture, served with savory slow-cooked onions and a generous amount of butter. A traditional, hearty dish, modified to be keto-friendly by carefully preparing the onions.
Key ingredients
Pork liver, butter, olive oil, onions (sliced, slowly cooked to avoid caramelization with sugar), salt, black pepper, fresh parsley, optional: side of steamed broccoli or cauliflower.
How to make it keto
Ensure onions are slow-cooked in butter/oil until softened and lightly browned, without any added sugar for 'caramelization'. Request no flour dredging on the liver. Serve with keto vegetables instead of potatoes or lingonberry jam.
Say this to the waiter (Norwegian)
Sørg for at løken er kokt uten tilsatt sukker, og leveren ikke er vendt i mel. Jeg ønsker keto-grønnsaker, ingen poteter eller tyttebærsyltetøy, takk.
Please ensure the onions are cooked without added sugar, and the liver is not dredged in flour. I'd like keto vegetables, no potatoes or lingonberry jam.
Watch out for
Liver often dredged in flour. Onions sometimes caramelized with sugar. Typically served with high-carb sides like potatoes or sweet jam.
